History
Project
We
recently put out a call for history buffs to fill in the
gaps in the Society's record. Within hours, volunteers Nancy
Wang and Chuck Bryan agreed to take on this project. They
will be scanning photos and clippings to acknowledge past
and present volunteers and writing summaries to record the
community activities undertaken by the Society. We can still
accommodate more volunteers to research our past and contact
the people involved.
Calling
Organic Practioners
Do
you garden organically? If so, please consider sharing your
knowledge with others through workshops at the CEED Centre.
You do not need to be an expert in all aspects of gardening
to consider helping. For example, if you know how to cultivate
specific plants or categories organically, consider an informal,
hands-on presentation using the CEED Centre Organic Community
Garden. We also plan to present pesticide alternatives workshops
and would appreciate input from both experts and lay practitioners.
Maintenance
Volunteers
We
are recruiting volunteers to help operate the CEED
Centre. Handy
with tools? We are looking for carpenters to rebuild our
wheelchair ramp and reinstall a window.
Computer
Volunteers
Mentor
your fellow citizens on the basics of computer and Internet
use. and providing referrals on environment and development
issues to drop-in visitors. In particular, we are looking
for a key volunteer willing to commit to a regular schedule
of their choosing. 
How
about green thumbs? We are seeking gardeners to spruce up
the common areas of the CEED
Centre Organic Community Garden.
We also want gardeners to help grow and water the food bank
beds at the CEED Centre Organic Community Garden in the
spring and summer.
Now
is the time to consider a community energy policy and alternative
energy installations for our area. Help us research these
topics.
